▁The ▁same ▁frequencies ▁were ▁already ▁in ▁use ▁for ▁ter rest rial ▁mic row ave ▁radio ▁relay ▁chains . ▁ ▁Near ly ▁all ▁C - band ▁communication ▁satell ites ▁use ▁the ▁band ▁of ▁frequencies ▁from ▁ 3 . 7 ▁to ▁ 4 . 2 G Hz ▁for ▁their ▁down links , ▁and ▁the ▁band ▁of ▁frequencies ▁from ▁ 5 . 9 2 5 to ▁ 6 . 4 2 5 G Hz ▁for ▁their ▁u pl inks . ▁Note ▁that ▁by ▁using ▁the ▁band ▁from ▁ 3 . 7 ▁to ▁ 4 . 0 G Hz , ▁this ▁C ▁band ▁overl aps ▁somewhat ▁into ▁the ▁I EEE ▁S ▁band ▁for ▁rad ars . ▁ ▁The ▁C - band ▁communication ▁satell ites ▁typically ▁have ▁ 2 4 ▁radio ▁trans pon ders ▁sp aced ▁ 2 0 M Hz ▁apart , ▁but ▁with ▁the ▁adjacent ▁trans pon ders ▁on ▁opposite ▁polar izations . ▁In ▁that ▁configuration , ▁the ▁trans pon ders ▁on ▁the ▁same ▁polar ization ▁are ▁always ▁ 4 0 M Hz ▁apart . ▁Of ▁this ▁ 4 0 M Hz , ▁each ▁trans pon der ▁util izes ▁about ▁ 3 6 M Hz . ▁( The ▁unused ▁ 4 . 0 M Hz ▁between ▁the ▁pairs ▁of ▁trans pon ders ▁acts ▁as ▁" guard ▁bands " ▁for ▁the ▁likely ▁case ▁of ▁imper fections ▁in ▁the ▁mic row ave ▁electron ics .) ▁ ▁One ▁use ▁of ▁the ▁C ▁band ▁is ▁for ▁satellite ▁communication , ▁whether ▁for |
▁full - time ▁satellite ▁television ▁networks ▁or ▁raw ▁satellite ▁feed s , ▁although ▁subscription ▁programming ▁also ▁exists . ▁This ▁use ▁contrast s ▁with ▁direct - broad cast ▁satellite , ▁which ▁is ▁a ▁completely ▁closed ▁system ▁used ▁to ▁deliver ▁subscription ▁programming ▁to ▁small ▁satellite ▁dishes ▁that ▁are ▁connected ▁with ▁propriet ary ▁receiving ▁equipment . ▁ ▁The ▁satellite ▁communications ▁portion ▁of ▁the ▁C ▁band ▁is ▁highly ▁associated ▁with ▁television ▁receive - only ▁satellite ▁reception ▁systems , ▁commonly ▁called ▁" big ▁dish " ▁systems , ▁since ▁small ▁receiving ▁anten nas ▁are ▁not ▁optimal ▁for ▁C - band ▁systems . ▁Typ ical ▁anten na ▁sizes ▁on ▁C - band ▁capable ▁systems ▁ranges ▁from ▁ 7 . 5 ▁to ▁ 1 2 fe et ▁( 2 . 5 ▁to ▁ 3 . 5 met ers ) ▁on ▁consumer ▁satellite ▁dishes , ▁although ▁larger ▁ones ▁also ▁can ▁be ▁used . ▁ ▁For ▁satellite ▁communications , ▁the ▁mic row ave ▁frequencies ▁of ▁the ▁C ▁band ▁perform ▁better ▁under ▁ad verse ▁weather ▁conditions ▁in ▁comparison ▁with ▁the ▁Ku ▁band ▁( 1 1 . 2 ▁G Hz ▁to ▁ 1 4 . 5 G Hz ), ▁mic row ave ▁frequencies ▁used ▁by ▁other ▁communication ▁satell ites . ▁Rain ▁fade ▁– the ▁collective ▁name ▁for ▁the ▁negative ▁effects ▁of ▁ad verse ▁weather ▁conditions ▁on ▁transmission – ▁is ▁mostly ▁a ▁consequence ▁of ▁precip itation ▁and ▁moisture ▁in ▁the ▁air . ▁ ▁Other ▁uses ▁of ▁C ▁band ▁frequencies ▁ ▁The ▁C ▁band ▁also ▁includes ▁the ▁ 5 . 8 |

. ▁These ▁events ▁inspired ▁a ▁period ▁of ▁int ros pection ▁for ▁the ▁singer . ▁" That ▁was ▁a ▁big ▁catal yst ▁for ▁me . ▁It ▁took ▁me ▁on ▁a ▁search ▁for ▁answers ▁to ▁questions ▁I ' d ▁never ▁asked ▁myself ▁before ," ▁she ▁said ▁to ▁Q ▁magazine ▁in ▁ 2 0 0 2 . ▁Mad onna ▁begun ▁writing ▁the ▁song ▁with ▁Leonard ▁during ▁developing ▁her ▁album ▁Ray ▁of ▁Light . ▁However , ▁unlike ▁their ▁previous ▁work ▁dynamics , ▁Leonard ▁gave ▁little ▁input ▁during ▁studio ▁sessions ▁and ▁only ▁co - w rote ▁four ▁songs ▁for ▁the ▁album , ▁including ▁" Nothing ▁Really ▁Mat ters ". ▁As ▁a ▁result , ▁Mad onna ▁did ▁not ▁want ▁him ▁to ▁produce ▁the ▁track . ▁Her ▁manager ▁Guy ▁O se ary ▁then ▁tele ph oned ▁Or bit , ▁and ▁suggested ▁that ▁the ▁latter ▁send ▁some ▁songs ▁to ▁Mad onna . ▁Or bit ▁sent ▁a ▁ 1 3 - track ▁digital ▁audio ▁tape ▁( DAT ) ▁to ▁her , ▁which ▁included ▁a ▁demo ▁version ▁of ▁" Nothing ▁Really ▁Mat ters " ' s ▁music . ▁According ▁to ▁Mad onna , ▁she ▁had ▁been ▁a ▁fan ▁of ▁Or bit ' s ▁work ▁for ▁a ▁long ▁time ▁and ▁was ▁pleased ▁with ▁the ▁demo ▁version , ▁which ▁he ▁started ▁to ▁work ▁on . ▁ ▁De ▁V ries , ▁who ▁had ▁worked ▁on ▁the ▁demo , ▁asked ▁Or bit ▁to ▁help ▁produce ▁the ▁song , ▁and ▁was ▁en listed . ▁According ▁to ▁Mad onna : ▁Like ▁an ▁Icon ▁writer ▁Lucy ▁O ' B rien |
, ▁De ▁V ries ▁and ▁Or bit ▁had ▁originally ▁composed ▁and ▁produced ▁the ▁track ▁before ▁Ray ▁of ▁Light ▁had ▁been ▁con ceived . ▁During ▁the ▁sessions , ▁Or bit ▁found ▁De ▁V ries ' ▁contribution ▁" off - put ting ", ▁to ▁which ▁the ▁latter ▁conf essed , ▁" On ▁all ▁the ▁collabor ations ▁I ' d ▁left ▁a ▁lot ▁of ▁space ▁for ▁him , ▁but ▁for ▁this ▁I ▁wanted ▁to ▁put ▁something ▁on ▁the ▁table ▁and ▁say , ▁' This ▁is ▁what ▁I ▁think ' ". ▁De ▁V ries ▁had ▁added ▁electronic ▁noise ▁frequencies ▁during ▁the ▁first ▁ch orus ▁of ▁the ▁song , ▁stating ▁that ▁he ▁had ▁a ▁" vision ▁on ▁how ▁the ▁song ▁should ▁be ▁finished ". ▁Or bit ▁did ▁not ▁like ▁the ▁addition ▁since ▁it ▁sounded ▁to ▁him ▁that ▁the ▁" DAT ' s ▁broken ". ▁De ▁V ries ▁def ended ▁his ▁contribution ▁saying ▁that ▁it ▁was ▁supposed ▁to ▁be ▁" like ▁that ▁[...] ▁It ' s ▁quite ▁slow ▁for ▁a ▁dance ▁tune ▁of ▁that ▁nature , ▁not ▁a ▁pace y ▁tune ." ▁Mad onna ▁had ▁enjoyed ▁all ▁three ▁of ▁their ▁contributions ▁to ▁the ▁track , ▁and ▁as ▁a ▁result , ▁Or bit ▁reluct antly ▁left ▁it ▁on . ▁In ▁J . ▁R andy ▁Tar abor rell i ' s ▁book ▁Mad onna : ▁An ▁Int imate ▁Biography , ▁the ▁singer ▁said ▁that ▁the ▁main ▁inspiration ▁behind ▁" Nothing ▁Really ▁Mat ters " ▁and ▁" The ▁Power ▁of ▁Good - By e " ▁from ▁the ▁same ▁album , ▁was ▁other |
▁people ▁jud ging ▁and ▁dis sect ing ▁her ▁creative ▁process . ▁El abor ating ▁on ▁the ▁statement , ▁she ▁added , ▁In ▁' Nothing ▁Really ▁Mat ters ' ▁and ▁' The ▁Power ▁of ▁Good - By e ', ▁I ▁want ▁people ▁to ▁have ▁a ▁vis cer al ▁and ▁emotional ▁reaction ▁to ▁things , ▁rather ▁than ▁to ▁have ▁in ▁their ▁mind ▁where ▁all ▁my ▁stuff ▁comes ▁from . ▁With ▁the ▁songs , ▁I ▁wanted ▁to ▁say ▁that ▁it ▁does ▁not ▁matter ▁really ▁what ▁you ▁think ▁or ▁do , ▁just ▁think ▁by ▁yourself , ▁and ▁not ▁judge ▁and ▁dis sect ▁others . ▁You ▁know ▁if ▁I ▁see ▁a ▁bug ▁craw ling ▁across ▁the ▁floor ▁and ▁it ▁inspired ▁me ▁to ▁write ▁the ▁most ▁incredible ▁love ▁poem , ▁I ▁don ' t ▁want ▁people ▁to ▁be ▁thinking ▁about ▁their ▁relationship , ▁and ▁then ▁think ▁of ▁my ▁bug ▁craw ling ▁across ▁the ▁floor . ▁It ' s ▁then ▁that ▁the ▁power ▁of ▁good - bye ▁becomes ▁better ▁than ▁the ▁power ▁of ▁acceptance . ▁ ▁Rec ording ▁and ▁composition ▁" Nothing ▁Really ▁Mat ters " ▁was ▁recorded ▁alongside ▁the ▁rest ▁of ▁the ▁album ▁at ▁L arr ab ee ▁North ▁Studio ▁in ▁North ▁Hollywood , ▁California . ▁Only ▁three ▁other ▁people ▁were ▁in ▁the ▁studio ▁with ▁Mad onna ▁during ▁the ▁recording ▁of ▁the ▁song ▁and ▁album : ▁Or bit , ▁recording ▁engineer ▁Pat ▁McC arth y , ▁and ▁his ▁assistant ▁engineer , ▁Matt ▁Silva . ▁The ▁track ▁featured ▁no ▁live ▁instrument ation , ▁and ▁was ▁part ▁of ▁a ▁machinery ▁issue |
▁that ▁delayed ▁initial ▁recording ▁as ▁Or bit ▁preferred ▁working ▁with ▁sample ▁loops ▁and ▁syn th - based ▁instrument ation . ▁As ▁a ▁result , ▁it ▁took ▁a ▁while ▁to ▁finish ▁production ▁of ▁the ▁song , ▁until ▁the ▁computers ▁were ▁rep aired . ▁The ▁song ▁was ▁master ed ▁by ▁Ted ▁J ensen ▁at ▁Ster ling ▁Studios ▁in ▁New ▁York , ▁and ▁included ▁background ▁vocals ▁from ▁Don na ▁De L ory ▁and ▁Nik ki ▁Harris . ▁ ▁" Nothing ▁Really ▁Mat ters " ▁is ▁a ▁mid - tem po ▁E DM ▁song ▁which ▁contains ▁influences ▁of ▁tech no , ▁downt em po ▁pop , ▁and ▁house ▁music . ▁It ▁is ▁set ▁in ▁time ▁signature ▁of ▁common ▁time , ▁and ▁is ▁composed ▁in ▁the ▁key ▁of ▁F ▁major , ▁with ▁a ▁moderate ▁tempo ▁of ▁ 1 1 7 ▁be ats ▁per ▁minute . ▁Mad onna ' s ▁vocals ▁range ▁from ▁the ▁lower ▁oct ave ▁of ▁F 3 ▁to ▁the ▁higher ▁note ▁of ▁A 4 . ▁Greg ▁Kot ▁from ▁the ▁Chicago ▁Trib une ▁lab elled ▁the ▁production ▁as ▁a ▁" world ly , ▁and ▁we ary ▁Mad onna ". ▁David ▁Brow ne ▁from ▁Entertainment ▁Week ly ▁noticed ▁that ▁the ▁" hard - step ▁be ats ▁and ▁syn th ▁was hes ▁make ▁the ▁romantic - phys ical ▁year nings ▁( and ▁hooks ) ▁of ▁' S kin ' ▁and ▁' Nothing ▁Really ▁Mat ters ' ▁even ▁t aut er ▁[...] ". ▁J . D . ▁Cons id ine ▁from ▁The ▁Baltimore ▁Sun ▁felt ▁the ▁song ▁was ▁a ▁" |
smart , ▁gro ove - int ensive ▁tune ". ▁Chuck ▁Taylor ▁from ▁Bill board ▁compared ▁the ▁composition ▁of ▁" Nothing ▁Really ▁Mat ters " ▁to ▁the ▁" dis co - enc r usted " ▁" V ogue " ▁( 1 9 9 0 ). ▁However , ▁he ▁found ▁that ▁the ▁" core " ▁important ▁part ▁of ▁the ▁song ▁was ▁its ▁" s weet ly - sp irit ual " ▁and ▁" simple " ▁l yr ical ▁content . ▁ ▁The ▁song ▁begins ▁with ▁a ▁" str ange , ▁electronic , ▁slightly ▁broken ▁noise " ▁that ▁sp ans ▁between ▁the ▁start ▁of ▁the ▁song ▁up ▁until ▁ 5 4 ▁seconds . ▁The ▁amb ient - in flu enced ▁beginning ▁gives ▁the ▁impression ▁that ▁" Nothing ▁Really ▁Mat ters " ▁would ▁be ▁a ▁ball ad , ▁but ▁in ▁the ▁minute ▁mark , ▁it ▁changes ▁to ▁a ▁mid - tem po ▁dance - pop ▁song . ▁The ▁amb ient ▁music ▁becomes ▁restr ained , ▁although ▁a ▁cur s ory ▁b leep ing ▁sound ▁can ▁be ▁heard ▁from ▁the ▁right ▁to ▁the ▁left . ▁The ▁background ▁has ▁a ▁number ▁of ▁faint ▁strings ▁in ▁it , ▁which ▁sign ifies ▁the ▁depth ▁of ▁the ▁stere o ▁field . ▁The ▁ch orus ▁starts ▁with ▁a ▁fast - p acing ▁dance ▁sound , ▁over ▁which ▁Mad onna ▁s ings , ▁" Nothing ▁really ▁matters ▁/ ▁love ▁is ▁all ▁we ▁need ▁/ ▁everything ▁I ▁give ▁you ▁/ ▁all ▁comes ▁back ▁to ▁me ." ▁Throughout ▁the ▁entire ▁song , ▁it ▁includes ▁two ▁vers |
es , ▁three ▁ch or uses , ▁one ▁bridge ▁section , ▁and ▁an ▁out ro . ▁The ▁bridge ▁is ▁backed ▁by ▁piano ▁sounds ▁with ▁a ▁desc ending ▁sequence ▁by ▁a ▁couple ▁of ▁bars . ▁Mad onna ▁s ings ▁the ▁same ▁lyrics ▁in ▁the ▁out ro , ▁but ▁is ▁slowed ▁down ▁and ▁echo ed ▁longer ▁until ▁the ▁music ▁f ades ▁out . ▁ ▁The ▁lyrics ▁are ▁about ▁the ▁birth ▁of ▁Mad onna ' s ▁daughter ▁L our des , ▁and ▁the ▁realization ▁of ▁mother hood . ▁In ▁an ▁interview ▁with ▁the ▁Wes ley an ▁University ▁Press , ▁the ▁singer ▁stated : ▁" There ' s ▁a ▁song ▁on ▁the ▁album ▁called ▁' Nothing ▁Really ▁Mat ters ', ▁and ▁it ▁is ▁very ▁much ▁inspired ▁by ▁my ▁daughter . ▁it ' s ▁just ▁realizing ▁that ▁at ▁the ▁end ▁of ▁the ▁day , ▁the ▁most ▁important ▁thing ▁is ▁loving ▁people ▁and ▁sharing ▁love . ▁The ▁birth ▁of ▁my ▁daughter ▁has ▁been ▁a ▁huge ▁influence . ▁It ' s ▁different ▁to ▁look ▁at ▁life ▁through ▁the ▁eyes ▁of ▁a ▁child , ▁and ▁suddenly ▁you ▁have ▁a ▁whole ▁new ▁respect ▁for ▁life ▁and ▁you ▁kind ▁of ▁get ▁your ▁innoc ence ▁back . ▁It ' s ▁this ▁real isation ▁which ▁I ▁incorporated ▁in ▁' Nothing ▁Really ▁Mat ters ', ▁' L ittle ▁Star ' ▁and ▁' Mer ▁Girl ' ." ▁Based ▁on ▁the ▁l yr ical ▁content , ▁Bryan ▁L ark ▁from ▁The ▁Michigan ▁Daily ▁reviewed ▁the ▁parent ▁album , ▁and ▁concluded ▁that ▁as ▁the ▁single ▁" Ray ▁of ▁Light |

▁that ▁the ▁original ▁album ▁version ▁was ▁somewhat ▁" te pid ", ▁and ▁commented , ▁" This ▁single ▁is ▁a ▁case ▁of ▁where ▁the ▁production ▁supers edes ▁the ▁song , ▁which ▁in ▁and ▁of ▁itself ▁is ▁among ▁Mad onna ' s ▁simpl est ▁and ▁least ▁interesting ▁t unes ." ▁However , ▁he ▁comm ended ▁the ▁rem ix es , ▁including ▁the ▁" E astern ▁Asian ", ▁" ch ill out " ▁and ▁" se ver al ▁club ▁cuts ". ▁Med ium ' s ▁Richard ▁La Be au ▁op ined ▁that ▁it ▁was ▁a ▁" per fect ly ▁fine ▁cut ▁from ▁her ▁best ▁album , ▁but ▁there ▁are ▁several ▁other ▁songs ▁on ▁the ▁album ▁that ▁are ▁better ▁and ▁would ▁have ▁made ▁more ▁interesting ▁singles ". ▁Bill boards ▁N olan ▁Fe en ey ▁noted , ▁" She ▁keeps ▁the ▁plat itudes ▁from ▁sound ing ▁empty ▁by ▁taking ▁her ▁younger ▁self ▁to ▁task ▁[...] ▁Dance ▁music ▁is ▁often ▁a ▁tool ▁for ▁artists ▁and ▁listeners ▁to ▁build ▁their ▁ident ities ; ▁here , ▁Mad onna ▁uses ▁puls ing ▁be ats ▁to ▁shed ▁her ▁skin ". ▁Rank ing ▁Mad onna ' s ▁singles ▁in ▁honor ▁of ▁her ▁ 6 0 th ▁birthday , ▁The ▁Guard ians ▁J ude ▁Rogers ▁placed ▁" Nothing ▁Really ▁Mat ters " ▁at ▁number ▁ 3 9 , ▁calling ▁it ▁a ▁" he aven ly ▁o de ▁to ▁mother hood ". ▁ ▁At ▁the ▁ 2 0 0 0 ▁A SC AP ▁R hythm ▁and ▁Soul ▁Awards , ▁" Nothing ▁Really ▁Mat ters " ▁was |
